Kumki dung to keep wild jumbos at bay
The New Indian Express Tiruchy
|December 24, 2024
AFTER trying out several methods, officials of the Gudalur forest division have started using the dung of kumkis, especially of animals that are in musth, to keep wild elephants from entering human habitations and farm lands in Cherampadi and Pandalur.
Sources said dung of kumkis collected from Theppakkadu camp is sprayed and burnt wherever tuskers and other elephants come out of the forest and get close to human habitations. Forest department officials believe the pungent smell of dung and smoke would keep the wild elephants from coming near human habitations.
